Based on all the information you've given I'd say it's probably a bumpy road? :whistle:

any other problems?
had it scanned?
any weird noises that are coming from it?

how much does it judder? does it do it at all times? or just when accelerating?decelerating?crusing at the same speed? what about in neutral? when at a stand still?


from my car judders... it could be anything from a flat spot on the tyre to engine mounts or engine related problems

Nope, no weird noises and does it all the time when accelerating and cruising along. I've just had brand new tyres so it can't be that. Ill take it too a garage and see what they say! Cheers mate

Judders - as you mentioned new tyres I'm going to say wheel weights, take it it didn't do it before the new tyres - my guess cowboy tyre fitters

Flywheel or your wheels need balancing.

Also could be driveshaft mine use to bump along when middle of my driveshaft had some play.. bolts got fooked or something. Check cheap option first wheel weights :wink:
